The biggest fight of the summer — financially, anyway — is just a few weeks away and while things have been relatively quiet in August, Conor McGregor hopes to stoke the promotional fire Friday afternoon with a media day/workout session.
The session, held at the UFC’s Performance Center in Las Vegas, NV, starts at 6 PM EST/3 PM PST and can be seen here:
Thursday’s session with Floyd Mayweather was fairly uneventful, save for a lot of big financial numbers thrown around for gate revenue and such.
For those just out of a coma, Mayweather is coming out of retirement to face McGregor in a boxing match at the T-Mobile Arena in Vegas on August 26th. Mayweather will be looking for his 50th win against zero losses while McGregor will be competing in his first ever boxing fight.
The fight is expected to do record business, both at the gate and on PPV.
